Innamorata star Max Collins still remains to be a Kapuso. She signed a two-year exclusive contract with GMA Network on February 10.
Present at the contract signing event were GMA executives Atty. Felipe L. Gozon, Chairman and CEO; Ms. Lilybeth G. Rasonable, Senior Vice-President of Entertainment; Ms. Redgie Acuna-Magno, VP for Drama; Ms. Gigi Santiago-Lara, AVP for Alternative Productions; Mr. Simoun Ferrer, GMA Artist Center AVP for Imaging; Ms. Angel Javier-Cruz, AVP for Corporate Communications; Mr. Charles Koo, Program Manager and Mr. Perry Lansigan, Max Collins’ manager.
On her contract renewal, she said, “Sobrang proud ako na maging isang Kapuso ulit. Sobrang happy ako sa bago kong project. I’m super blessed and thankful.”
The Kapuso actress charmed her way into viewers’ hearts in the Philippine adaptation of Coffee Prince. She was then paired with Kapuso Primetime King Dingdong Dantes in the GMA Telebabad series, Pahiram ng Sandali.
She briefly appeared in romantic comedy series, With A Smile and became a regular in Bubble Gang. This goes to show how wide Max’s acting range is.
This 2014, Max will be having her first lead role as she stars in the upcoming GMA Afternoon Prime series, Innamorata.
Max mentioned that they have been taping for the series for three weeks now. Innamorata will be airing beginning February 17. It is very timely since the afternoon soap is all about love. Max will be paired with Luis Alandy and Dion Ignacio in the series.
When asked about the show’s concept, Max explained, “Mystical po iyong kuwento. Hindi lang siya basta dramatic. May magic element and kasi ‘yung character ko has a skin disease. Then ‘yung character of Luis Alandy, bulag naman siya. It’s two people who have certain disabilities and they fall in love. It’s about finding true beauty through love.”
“Matagal ko itong pinangarap and hinintay. I’m just really thankful that finally, I’m here,” said Max.
“I’m very pressured kasi siyempre gusto ko maging maganda ang reviews. Sana mabigyan ko rin ng justice ang character ko. I hope my performance would be worthy of being a lead,” she stated.
